Re: Older babies...how long did treatment last?

April 17, 2006

Hi ,

My son seems to be the oldest in this whole group! We started the

approval with the insurance company at 11 months, got the approval

at 12 months and banded him two weeks after his first birthday.

They told us he would wear it for four months, but it completely

depends on his growth. She mentioned maybe going for a second one

but we are taking one step at a time. Good luck and let us know how

it is going!
